They need a lot of ventilation if mounted in a cabinet, not enough and the controller will fail. My installer had to replace a few
I had one fail a couple of months ago, 9 year old one of the bigger ones (M5 I think). It was the ring in the base and that could only be done at...
I used to have a condo on Brickell in the 90s. Sold in 2003 and moved aboard my 53 docked in the grove. It was great back then but the area has...
I can’t imagine the maintenance on a 20+ year old Mocchi Craft. As J said you need to define how you will use the boat. For instance over 5’...
One benefit of having both shows at the time is that people looking at the larger boats and brokerage can also look at equipment in the same...
I ve tried spurs but it seemed that very few months they were shedding an (expensive) part even though they were installed by spurs (or one of...
Also make sure you get tinned wire. Much more corrosion resistant. I ve replaced glendining installed cavle that were not tinned
Can’t be worst than it is now. RWB built that pier to nowhere and destroyed the northern half of the island anyway

Yes Rudder posts had been leaking for a while and water would flow in the center bilge under the master where the aft bilge pump is. It never...
All I can tell you is that my aft bilge, under the master never had any oily water in it and has no oil residue. And that was after 47 years of...
A few months ago I came across a you tube video shot on the bridge of a carrier coming into NY harbor for fleet week. It was pure mayhem with way...
The water would have to be extremely high to make it aft even bow high while running. As in over the stringers to make it into the center section...
Correction about the older Hatteras bilge setup... the 53 and all of these MY have four sealed bilges. Forward (genny room), both ERs and aft....
Looking at the window would have helped but in this case there were multiple ships, some hidden behind others. A decent radar system, not even...
Having spent over 200k (and I m not finished) on repowering, refitting and redesigning the interior of an almost 50 year old 53 Hatteras MY.. let...
It s not about the rules, it s about safety. A $5000 radar and AIS receiver on the bridge would have saved lives. And carreers. And...
True but the current increase from 32 to 24 isn’t much and something the wiring can handle. Now as someone mentioned above, the problem is that a...
